Abstract

Formålet med denne artikel er at undersøge mulige fælles spørgsmål i økonomisk sociologi og konventionsøkonomi. Artiklen behandler to temaer der er rejst af konventionsøkonomien der er særligt vigtige for økonomisk sociologi. For det første spørgsmålet om udforskningen af konsekvenserne af en pluralitet af retfærdiggørelsesformer, som det behandles i économie de la grandeur. Dette perspektiv er fornylig udviklet i økonomisk sociologi af David Stark. For det andet rejser André Orléan spørsmålet om behovet for at denaturalisere økonomisk teori ved at demonstrere økonomisk adfærds socialt kunstruerede natur. Det argumenteres at disse to spørgsmål demonstrerer at en frugtbar dialog mellem økonomisk sociologi og konventionsøkonomi er mulig og bør opmuntres.

N2 - The aim of the article is to explore potential common themes in economic sociology and economics of conventions. The article explores two issues raised by economics of conventions that may be of particular importance to economic sociology. First, the explicit exploration of the consequences of a plurality of forms of justification, as elaborated in économie de la grandeur. This perspective was recently taken up in economic sociology by David Stark's introduction of the notion ‘sociology of worth'. The second issue, recently suggested by André Orléan, is the need to denaturalize economic theory and economic action to demonstrate the social constructed nature of economic action. It is argued that these two issues demonstrate that a fruitful dialogue is indeed possible between economic sociology and economics of convention and should be encouraged.
